Synapse type(s):hippocampus, GABAergic
Annotated paper:Kittler JT, et al. "The subcellular distribution of GABARAP and its ability to interact with NSF suggest a role for this protein in the intracellular transport of GABA(A) receptors" Mol Cell Neurosci. 2001 Jul;18(1):13-25 PMID:11461150
Figure(s):Figures 1-8
Annotation description:Figure 7c: immunofluorescence and confocal microscopy imaging for GABARAP co-stained with NSF showed strong overlap throughout the dendrite. Furthermore, GST IP+WB showed that GABARAP and NSF interact (Figure 6).

Figure 8. immunogold labeling of GABARAP and immunoperoxidase labeling of NSF showed co-localization at the edge of the Golgi apparatus and at postsynaptic cisternae. "Such postsynaptic cisternae have been shown to contain many components of the protein synthetic machinery (Gardiol et al., 1999) or alternatively may be part of postsynaptic tubulovesicular endosomes"
